In The Vineyard
This wine is sourced from vineyards in the northern part of California’s central. The region
around Lodi and Manteca enjoys significant influence from San Joaquin and Sacramento
river deltas, which act as a natural cooling system to the often-searing heat. The effect is to
provide freshness to the ripe, fruit charged Cabernet grapes.
In The Winery
Individual Cabernet blocks are vinified separately and then blended to produce a wine
which reflects the right balance between fruit and structure. The wine then spends 6
months on oak to provide a broad frame for this rich wine.
Tasting Note
Ripe blackcurrant and wild berry fruit on the nose, bright cassis and black cherry on the
palate with a soft, juicy, yet long finish.
Food Recommendations
Ideal with lean red meats and poultry, such as chicken and turkey in mild, lightly seasoned
sauces, all types of pasta dishes, creamy cheeses, and nuts.
